OK So i just downloaded dolphin and i have a few questions.

1. If there is a new version of dolphin do i have to delete my old one, download the new one and config it all again or do i just replace some some files?

2. What is the r6198 and r7... and stuff?

3. Would a Nyko wii remote work on dolphin?

4. Whats OpenGL? I saw it in the optimal settings of a game I wanna play but dont know what it is.

5. The top of my dolphin emulator says Dolphin 3.0-368-dirty. Should i be concerned because of the dirty part?

Thanks for the help in advance!

1)You can move the user folder over to the new one, this will transfer all saves and config.
2)Dolphin versions from r1 to r~7000 are the older versions of Dolphin, after that Dolphin switched to GIT, which means you can compile different braches, so the new names doesn't neccesarily follow linearly with all changes (the one you have). I never looked at the naming, but I would assume yours is r368 of the master branch.
3)Lots of 3rd party wiimotes were recently fixed, not sure if all were
4)OpenGL is found in the graphics settings, it's a renderer such as DirectX
5)"dirty" probably means someone modified it somehow, for example with a patch that partly fixes something, but may cause another issue (ask where you got it from). Maybe it's just from a branch.
